Pulteney Grammar School is an independent school based in the heart of Adelaide. After successfully maintaining Pulteney Grammar School for the past five years, our Adelaide team was re-contracted to provide ongoing commercial painting works.
While the previous plan's key focus was the repainting of the college’s buildings, our focus moving forward is to maintain all buildings and provide repainting works ad-hoc.
Within the scope of the original preventative painting maintenance plan, we had the option to extend the contract based on our performance. We instead suggested that the school would be better off extending for five due to the condition of the school’s buildings, which they were happy to do.
Our operations team has since returned to perform repainting works during recent school holiday breaks. Our solution involves painting maintenance internally and externally with a high volume of hours completed over the Christmas Holiday break to accommodate the utilisation of access machinery.
We will be prioritising the upkeep of high-exposure areas. Areas likely to be seen during school visits, or from passing traffic, receive more frequent painting maintenance. The school features a mix of heritage and new buildings, with each requiring a unique strategy. The colour scheme being applied matches the college’s existing palette.
"Pulteney Grammar School have recontracted Higgins Coatings for another 5-year comprehensive painting and maintenance painting schedule for the school. What has impressed us with Higgins is the high level of professionalism, flexibility and care in understanding our needs and issues that existed prior to their commencement in 2016.
Higgins’ ability to analyse all of the aforementioned issues and devise conducive solutions was very impressive. Since commencing work on the buildings, we have been impressed with the outcomes to the school. We have full confidence in their abilities to deliver their solutions and are look forward to continuing our association with Higgins."
